I have just past the first week since I joined Scorum and as of now have earned a few SP. What I am curious though is how I can earn more and start earning Scorum coins (SCR). It seems all post rewards and curation rewards end up as SP and in order to cover SP to SCR would take 52 weeks to make conversion of the full amount of SP. That means 1/52 of the total SP turns into SCR every week if I was to power down.

It is my understanding that users can only make bets with the use of SCR so that is part of the reason why I am curious if there were other ways of earning SCR. One could trade it through open ledger but liquidity is lacking. As shown below snapshot of coinmarketcap in the past 24 hours trading in SCR.

It is certainly difficult to earn SCR since the ICO has ended. So as of now the best route for me to earn more SCR is to earn more SP. Then lies the question, How do I earn more SP?

Posting

The main idea of a blog is to post stories and events for all to see. It only makes sense that in order to earn more one would have to present more content. As simple as that seems a lot of times the rewards of posting will end up being little to nothing. It is apart of the way of growing one's brand. As you post more often and provide good content to readers you will sooner or later grab the attention of others that will be willing to give upvotes.

As a user of Steemit I know first hand how difficult it is to grow a brand and to gain followers. However everyone has to start somewhere therefore what better way to branding one self than by posting and posting daily. Being consistent in your activities on Scorum is crucial to earning consistently.

Curating / Commenting

Another way of earning more SP is through commenting other users' posts on Scorum. Of course the comments should be genuine and thoughtful. Having read the posts should equate to you spending some time thinking about what more could be added or simply give a honest but humble gratitude to the author. Often times when I comment I would also upvote the post because it shows my appreciation toward the author not only in words but back by actual cryptocurrency. Like the old saying goes, "money talks, BS walks." Giving to the authors will often times get you in return a upvote for your efforts. What is important to know is upvote and comment goes hand and hand. By commenting the author who sees your comment can reciprocate easier by upvoting your comments.

Focus on the Goal That is to Earn More SCR

It will definitely not be easy for many to earn big rewards but when you earn just a few cents each day and accumulate enough over a long period of time it will become a worth wild endeavor. Rome was not built in a day so neither likely will it be for growing your Scorum account. I for one am learning that yet again as I begin my journey through Scorum's blog platform.

Thanks for reading.
